Katie

Did you know Dies to Die For now has  it’s very own monthly challenge blog, Die-ing for a Challenge?  This is the card I made for the first challenge which , is sponsored by Dies to Die For and the prize is a fab £25 voucher to spend in the store.  Can’t be bad hey?

I have used one of the gorgeous new Sarah Kay stamps on my card today.  She is called Katie, such a little doll and is in stock now at D2D4.  I have used two dies on my card – Marianne Design Creatables - Designer Doily – LR0130 and also a Memory Box Pearl Lace border die.

The stunning papers are Marianne Design Eline's Huis Paper Bloc A4 - Pale Pastels, I have resisted using these for so long, they are just stunning and it took me ages to pluck up the courage to cut in to them lol.

Katie has been coloured with Copics and Prismacolor pencils
Skin: E11, 00, 000, 0000, R30
Hair: E25, 23, 50 and dark umber pencil
Beige: E43, 42, 41, 40 and warm grey 20% pencil
Pink: R83, 81, RV000, 0000 and Tuscan red pencil
Flowers: R89, 85, G46, 43

I have used some yummy Dusty Attic chipboards (that will be in stock at Dies to Die For any day now) – the feathers I have used as leaves (after coating them with Picket Fence Distress Paint) and edging with Stickles. 

I have also used a small Dusty Attic padlock and key and given them the same treatment as before.  The gorgeous Grand Lace Trim has been cut in half (love being thrifty lol).
